2012高考英语备考：as的用法as这个词看似简单，但用法却是很多的，对它的正确理解关系到英语应用能力的提高，因此我们有必要对其用法和搭配进行详细阐述。 一、as作介词 1. 区别as和like as作为介词时，可以表示“像……”，这时它可以和like互用；as还可以表示“以……身份”或“作为……”，“当作……”，但like不能。 e.g. I) They lived and fought among the people as “fish in water”. (as相当于like) II) As a scientist, he was dedicated to (致力于) the truth. (这里不可以用like) II) They talked as old friends. (他们确乎是老朋友。) à They talked like old friends. (他们像老朋友一样。) 2. as引导的介词短语在句中可以充当： a) 宾语补足语 e.g. I) She spoke of me as her dearest friend. II) The plan struck me as very much worthwhile. III) You mustn’t think of me as (being) unhappy. b) 主语补足语 ?e.g. I) She is well-known as being very cheerful. II) He is sometimes portrayed as belonging to another century. III) That picture is looked upon as very valuable. 常用于这类结构的动词有：accept, consider, describe, elect, interpret (理解), look upon, perceive, recognize, refer to, regard, see, strike, take, think of, treat, view等等。 二、as作连词 1. 作“当……的时候”,引导时间状语从句。注意与when、 while的用法区别。 A. ?when作当……的时候解,可以指较短的(一点)时间,也可指一段时间。 e.g. I)When he was at college, he could speak several foreign languages. II) When the clock struck twelve, all the lights in the street went out.? B. while常表示一段较长的时间或一个过程,强调主句谓语动词与从句谓语动词同时发生。 e.g. Work while you work. Play while you play. C. 但属下列情形时,只用as, 而不用when或while。 1) 用于表示同一个人的两种动作交替进行,指“一边……,一边……”。 e.g.I)The girl dances as she sings on the stage.? II) He looked behind from time to time as he went forward. 2)表示两个同步发展的动作或行为,译为“随着……”。 e.g. I) As time went on / by, she became more and more worried.? II) As children get older, they become more and more interested in the things around them.? 3)表示两个短促行为或事件几乎同时发生。 e.g. I) I thought of it just as you opened your mouth.? II) Just as the flying worm hit her face, she gave a loud cry. 4) 后接名词表示某一年龄段时,用as。 e.g. As a young man, he was active in sports.? 2. as=since, 作“既然”、“由于”解,引导原因状语从句,常用来表示已为人们所知或显而易见的原因或理由。 e.g. I)As / Since you’re not feeling well, you may stay at home. II) As he wasnt ready in time, we went without him. 3. as=in the way th
